From Variety.com...
One of the more ambitious projects around town — the bigscreen adaptation of DC Comics' "
Justice League" — cleared a major hurdle last week.
Husband-wife writing duo Kieran Mulroney and Michele Mulroney turned in a first draft that had Warner Bros. suits actually smiling — no small feat, considering "
Justice" follows a half-dozen of the best-known superheroes working together, including
Batman and
Superman.
But the accomplish-ment raises a tricky question for Warners: Should it release "
Justice" before its "
Superman Returns" sequel?
Christopher Nolan’s next
Batman pic "
The Dark Knight" bows in July 2008. Bryan Singer’s "
Superman" follow-up had been expected to play in 2009. But there’s no script yet for that pic, while Singer is busy getting ready to shot Tom Cruise starrer "
Valkyrie" for UA.
The question now: Will a souped-up "
Justice League" prove to be Kryptonite to Superman? You tell me.
